[VERSE 1:]
   C         D                  C       D
If it should please you, I have come to play
  G         D                  C        D
A glad or a sad tune, I wrote along the way 
      C        D               C       D
And a few good songs about the old highway 
        G        D                       C       D
I been around so long, lord, I guess I'm here to stay


[VERSE 2:]
       C          D                 C        D
So I'm itching to please you, with a topical song 
      G          D            C         D
And a few golden oldies and a little hoedown 
      C       D           C        D
And I think I know how to make you feel 
      G           D                C      D
We're one and the same now, like a big flywheel


[CHORUS:]
                G                 C                  D
I have seen the best of all those things you can't explain 
             G                    C            A
Wanderlust I did not trust, but I never did complain


[VERSE 3:]
N.C.            D                C         D
So if it should please you, put away those blues 
     G         D                    C         D
Just settle on back now, I'll do my licks for you 
     C      D                  C      D
It's my own way and that's the way it goes 
         G         D            C         D
You're a real good reason for a real good show

[CHORUS:]
                G                 C                   D
I have seen the best of all those things you don't forget 
             G                   C                  A
Wanderlust I did not trust and I ain't been done in yet


[VERSE 4:]
N.C.               D               C       D
So, if you got the dead end of the dealing shoe 
             G    D                 C       D
This is your last chance, man, we belong to you 
     C      D                  C     D
It's my own way and that's the way I feel 
      G           D                C      D
We're one and the same now, like a big flywheel

      G           D               C        D
We're one and the same now, let's take it away 
            C            D           C        D
We're gonna take it real easy, let's take it away
            G            D           C        D
We're gonna take it real easy, let's take it away
